The "hot and humorous" debut of the action-packed shapeshifter series from the New York Times bestselling author of the Pride novels (USAToday.com).

It's not every day that a beautiful naked woman falls out of the sky and lands face-first on grizzly shifter Berg Dunn's hotel balcony. Definitely they don't usually hop up and demand his best gun. Berg gives the lady a grizzly-sized t-shirt and his cell phone, too, just on style points. And then she's gone, taking his XXXL heart with her. By the time he figures out she's a honey badger shifter, it's too late.

Honey badgers are survivors. Brutal, vicious, ill-tempered survivors. Or maybe Charlie Taylor-MacKilligan is just pissed that her useless father is trying to get them all killed again??and won't even tell her how. Protecting her little sisters has always been her job, and she's not about to let some pesky giant grizzly protection specialist with a network of every shifter in Manhattan get in her way. Wait. He's trying to help? Why would he want to do that? He's cute enough that she just might let him tag along??that is, if he can keep up . . .

Praise for Shelly Laurenston and the Honey Badger Chronicles

"When it comes to combining offbeat humor and mayhem, it is tough to beat Laurenston."??RT Book Reviews

"Laurenston delights . . . Zany, sarcastic humor . . . Familiar, well-developed characters and full immersion into the universe make this a must-read for a new and returning readers alike."??Publishers Weekly

"Pure, unadulterated fun. It's ten pounds of bursting-at-the-seams excitement in a five-pound bag."??Bo

I really love Shelly Laurenston's writing because it is so humorous and it can always cheer me up. This book is a spinoff of the Pride series, and it feels like as the books go on longer and longer the romance feels so incidental that I can't even say that that's what the book is about. That isn't necessarily a bad thing because the characters are so fun and the plot is good, but these books are more about found family than anything else. ( )

I read a review that if you haven't read other books it wouldn't make sense....they were right. I'm just can't get into this. ( )

So this book was chaotic and hilarious I really liked it ( )

I love Shelly Laurenston. Her books are always hilarious and full of action and fluff. I haven't read the Pride series, but this can be read as standalone - at least I don't think I've missed anything much.

I loved all the characters in this. I started to type which but then realised I listed all the characters. They were all amazing - Charlie, Max and Stevie and the triplets. And Kyle. And Dutch. See my problem? It was all just fantastic. The plot was crazy and insane and I loved every minute, chuckling my way through the one liners.

My only complaint and one which I feel the need to take half a star for is the language. At one point the c*** word is used and I hate that word so utterly much. It's only used once, but it was so unnecessary - it added nothing and jolted me out of my enjoyment of the narrative. Maybe I'm crazy, but I prefer that word to be absent from my vocabulary. So 4.5 stars, rounded up to 5. ( )

Paranormal Romance -March 27th, 2018
4 stars

Zany, outrageous fun!

Charlie is a scary honey badger and a MacKilligan to boot. Even the cantankerous honey badgers try to stay away from her. She and her two younger sister are social pariahs since their father is such a louse. They have been left to fend for themselves since Charlie's mother died. As the eldest, Charlie feels responsible for taking care of her sisters. Especially the youngest, Stevie. Stevie is a genius and it seems everyone wants the secrets she comes ups with. But their biggest problem to date is that their conniving, weasel of a father has stolen a boat load of money and gotten himself involved with some nasty shifters. As a result, they find themselves in hot water as they are hunted down because they are a connection to finding their father. Along the way Charlie has somehow picked up a grizzly bear admirer. One who isn't fazed by her crazy family. Will Charlie loose her chance or see Berg for the very tolerant and special bear that she can spend her life with?

Fantastically funny and completely original This book will have you in stitches and gasping for breathe. Shelly Laurenston is unparalleled in imaginative genius. Charlie and her sister are a nonstop hoot. I hope the younger sisters get a story of their own, too. While this book can be read a a stand alone. Many characters from previous books play an integral part (My fav is a certain hockey star named Bo and the hilarious Smiths) and if you haven't read prior books you won't get the inside jokes. So why the four stars instead of five? Primarily because there is so much going on it can be hard to catch up. Reading this novel was a whirlwind of action and high-jinx but sometimes I needed a break. I really enjoyed reading about the characters but I sort of wanted the author to stop and spend more time on the main characters -the heroine and hero with more alone time and get to know them on a deeper level.

Bad## heroines and non stop thrills. For pure entertainment value, this book can't be beat.
